Caliban
Caliban vs. Heaven Shall Burn - The Split Program II
1. Unleash Enlightment
Once risen from dark centuries
With inflamed hearts and noble minds
Driven by a vision of a glowing world
And lighted nations of freedom
Now blinded, chained and strangled,
Thrown into a dungeon of corruption
Our fathers wisdom lies
Mercenaries in a war against ourselves
Petitioning dastardly idols
And following a godless saviour
We let them come to power
Unless we unleash enlightment!
An ancient dogma builds new kingdoms
Unless we unleash enlightment!
Puppets of consumption unlearned creating
A mendacious wealth secured by silent slaves
Inane parents, mislead children raised to soldiers
Mercenaries in a war against ourselves
A waste of precious blood and dignity
2. No One Will Shed a Tear
No one wil shed a tear
With frozen souls and darkened eyes
We're marching to the point of no return
No sorrow strong enough to
Tear apart our bleeding hearts again
Not searching for a peace in heaven
No one will ever shed a tear
With my hands raised to the sky
We will not wait for someone to decide
Our sober minds will face this barren truth
Not longing for a distant paradise
This is the final levy
From bleeding hands
They will receive the final stroke
From dying voices
They will hear the curse we whisper
While marching forward without intermission
And tearing down the halls of the extortioner

4. If This Is a Man
You who live safe
In your warm houses,
You who find, returning in the evening,
Hot food and friendly faces:
Consider if this is a man
Who works in the mud
Who does not know peace
Who fights for a scrap of bread
Who dies because of a yes or a no.
Consider if this is a woman,
Without hair and without name
With no more strength to remember,
Her eyes empty and her womb cold
Like a frog in winter.
Meditate that this came about:
I commend these words to you.
Carve them in your hearts
At home, in the street,
Going to bed, rising;
Repeat them to your children,
Or may your house fall apart,
May illness impede you,
May your children turn
their faces from you.
5. Downfall of Christ (Merauder cover)
I am the Lord, your God, kneel before me and pray
Forbidden acts of evil forced upon people in different ways
Suffering children preyed upon by the man in black
Through the years you look the other way
Here lies the victim of a vicious attack
It's the downfall of Christ
You see him nailed to the cross
It's the downfall of Christ
Betrayed by all of us
If only you will forget I am the one you called
Suppression of a different kind, as you die you call for your God
Seeing me as I bleed before you, you'll be the one to cry
Looking down the roads towards a miracle
My God, he cannot save my life
It's the downfall of Christ
You see him nailed to the cross
It's the downfall of Christ
Betrayed by all of us
Sinners - benevolence is not in your soul
(Our) healers - temptation has led you astray
Judas - using religion for war
Pestilents (persuasion) - it's their holy holocaust
Centuries of merauders fighting in the name of their gods
People dying everyday, hell has opened it's doors
Manipulation for murder, crucified on the cross
Revel in victims blood, revival of their religious wars
It's the downfall of Christ
You see him nailed to the cross
It's the downfall of Christ
Betrayed by all of us
6. Destroy Fascism (Endstand cover)
I've had enough of your lies
Now it's the time to make it stop
Spreading false propaganda how your race is clean
How can you be so stupid? Colour doesn't mean a fucking thing
Now we're ready to fight for everyone's right
To live without fear getting attacked by you
Baldheaded assholes this we won't tolerate
It's time to put end to this fucking hate
Destroy fascism!
Antifascist action now...
7. The Revenge
You thought the worst was over, you thought my demon was dead
but the revenge has just begun (2x), my life for your blood
I am the avenger of our time, my sword is my witness and judge
There is no way out, there is no place to hide
Here I stand and fight for my desire, my life for your blood and fire (2x)
Death for the rapist of my soul, one cut for each second of pain
A red sun will arise and liberate my soul
(But I will never forget the pain)
(2x)
Here I stand and fight for my desire, my life for your blood and fire (2x)
You thought the worst was over, you thought my demon was dead
but the revenge has just begun (2x), my life for your blood
8. Arena of Concealment
the image of the world I live in
born into to fall into oblivion
is the huge arena of illusion & deceit
nothing's real
not a thing curtain call & the show starts,
commonness and self-leceration against the unceasing
lape of redemption - clowns
the masters of disguise
are man's prototype my fear of the future increases
this arena is crowded with clowns
curtain call & the show starts
just one tear releases a violent river
9. One Day
Cold blooded you've slaughtered the innocent
Your merciless sport is so bloody, but not for much longer
The day will come you will burn in a fire of requital
You will bleed for your dreadful actions
In the end you will whine, but there's no mercy
And there will be bloodshed
But it won't be that of the innocent
Cold bloodshed!
10. A Summer Dream
The finest breeze of wind, born is the beautiful
Lonely in a wide open space
There is nothing to see of the world, only dream
Lonely in a wide open space, lonely, just to be me, only dream, the sun is low, the moon
Is high and in the middle my consciousness
The middle of day and night, a life inn harmony, no fear, no pain, immortal for one Moment, i'm screaming up to the sky right into infinity
Silence!
Blood overruns my body
I'm tumbling down, imminent to drown in my own blood,
Nobody there to help, dead!!!
11. One More Lie
take your god out of my life
your words mean nothing to me
your messages are just lies
one word, one lie one pocket full of money
how can someone die when he never existed?
a cycle of illusions crosses the land
burn this cycle, burn it down
your illusions kill your mind
pay in the name of god or pay for nothing
lie
